    STEP FIVE

    Add the dry brownie ingredients into the wet.

    The dry and wet ingredients have been combined. This has created a shiny, chocolatey brownie batter.

    STEP SIX

    In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients for the pumpkin batter.

    Now we are making the pumpkin mixture. The pumpkin purée and the other wet ingredients for the pumpkin mixture have been added to the bowl.

    The brownie batter has been added to the square baking tray and smoothed out.

    STEP TEN

    Use a spoon to create two wells in the brownie batter.

    STEP ELEVEN

    Fill the two wells with pumpkin batter.

    The pumpkin batter has filled the wells.

    STEP TWELVE

    Use a long skewer to 'swirl' the pumpkin batter into the brownie batter.

    Tips For Making Pumpkin Brownies

    Don't Over Bake

    Leaving the vegan pumpkin brownies in the oven too long will cause them to dry out quickly and become unappetising.

    Line Your Baking Tray

    Don't forget to do this. The brownie will get stuck to the bottom of the tray otherwise.

    How To Assemble The Brownies

    When you have poured the brownie batter into the baking tin, make wells in the batter with a spoon.

    Pour the pumpkin mixture into the wells then use a skewer to swirl the mixture into the brownie batter. Create some nice patterns.

    Can I Use Pumpkin Pie Filling?

    Pumpkin purée and pumpkin pie filling have different textures and flavours. You can substitute them but pumpkin pie fillings has extra spices such as nutmeg in it which may or may not compliment your brownies. It's down to what you like at the end of the day.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why are my brownies cakey and not fudgy?

    To achieve a 'fudgier' texture, you need a higher fat to flour ratio. Always measure your ingredients before baking.

    Why are my brownies dry and crumbly?

    The brownies are over-baked. Always make sure that you oven temperature is correct.

    How To Store My Vegan Pumpkin Brownies

    Store these vegan brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or in the fridge for 1 week.

    Description

    These vegan pumpkin brownies are so fudgy! If you love a chocolatey treat with an autumnal twist, you'll like these yummy treats. 


    Ingredients

    Units Scale

    Brownie batter:

    • 165g all-purpose flour (sifted)
    • 150g cocoa powder (sifted)
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 0.25 teaspoon salt
    • 100g granulated sugar
    • 100g brown sugar
    • 150g vegan butter (melted)
    • 250ml soy milk
    • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    • 60g vegan chocolate chunks

    Pumpkin batter:

    • 250g pumpkin puree
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 25g granulated sugar
    • 60ml soy milk
    • 30ml vegetable oil
    • 80g all-purpose flour (sifted)
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 0.25 teaspoon salt

    Instructions

    Preparation:

    1. Grease a 23cm x 23cm (9 inch), square baking tin with cold vegan butter. Line with parchment paper. Set aside.
    2. Preheat oven to 180 Celsius (356F).

    Make the brownie batter:

    1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Mix well.
    2. To a separate large mixing bowl, add both sugars, melted butter. Whisk well, then pour in the soy milk and vanilla. Mix again.
    3. Gradually, fold the dry mixture into the wet mixture until almost all the flour pockets are gone. Fold in the chocolate chips, then fold in the final pockets of flour.

    Make the pumpkin batter:

    1. To a large bowl, pour in the pumpkin purée, vanilla extract, granulated sugar, soy milk and vegetable oil. Whisk well.
    2. In a separate small bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder and salt.
    3. Add the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Fold until they are just combined.

    Assemble the brownies:

    1. Pour the brownie batter into the prepared baking tin. Make sure it is nice and smooth.
    2. Use a spoon to create two well holes inside the brownie batter (see step by step instructions on post with images). Add the pumpkin mixture to the holes.
    3. Use a long skewer to create a pattern you like by mixing the two mixtures (see step by step instructions again). This can get quite messy. The main thing is that the two mixtures are a little combined. 
    4. Place into the oven and bake for 23-25 minutes.
    5. Let the brownies cool, the slice and serve.
